WASHINGTON, D. O., July al.-The sen
aatlonsl expose by the New York yorl.
Of ex-senator Camden's dealings witt
Shelton Roger has stricken Mr.. Camden's
iriendg hero with condemnation. Some O.
them violently assert that the whole
thing Is black.msil scheme and that Il
Camden did furnish Roger with money
for his Ohio jaunt, as alleged, 1t was only
to get rid Of Rogers opportunities; that
the ex-senator was not afraid Of q grand
jury investigation, and the only effect
would have been to show Roger himssli
up in an unenyiable light.
Ssa ANOTHER VIEW.
Othcrs say there Ia doubtless some dark
mystery about the affair; If there Is not,
they agree that Mr.. Camden ought to
bring action against the World by ysy Of
indicating himself and friends, and re-.
lieving them from an embarrassing situa-
ton. There are those unkind enough TO
connect Governor Wilson's late visit to
Now York with the matter. 011,

Investigation shows that the train hands
were entirely blameless. The wounded
were not removed until half an hour
later when construction train took them
to Paterson. All station hands who were
available as we'll as some residents in the
vicinity, hastened to the ecene whore the
comrades Of the dead and injured men
were already administering to tbs wants
OF those who were notpast need. Most OF
the unfortunstes had been hurled down
the embankment OF the down track, while
come were lying around between the rails
horribly mutilated. Hats and shoes
which had been torn from victims were
scattered about. In places were little
pools OF blood, pieces OF human bones.
and ragged strips OF flesh. Some had
their legs torn of, others were lying with
gashes in their heads, and some we're &c
horribly mangled as to be unrecognizable.

At the democratic convention
Tuesday the following named gen
tlemen were nominated for county
officers. Clerk, John jay; treasurer,
T. J. Hickman; sheriff, G. A. Par
sons; surveyor, n. II. Holmberg;
assessor, l. l.. Maxwell; coroner, J.
J.. Barnes. OF these gentlemen the
clerk. treasurer and surveyor live in
Las Animas, the sheriff on ranch
near there, the assessor in this city,
and the coroner at La Junta. As far
as we know they are all very good
men, who have following that must
not be ignored by the republicans in
their canvass. We believe the re-
publican ticket will be elected, for
the reason that the majority of the
voters in the county are republicans
bat it will require party vote TO de-
feat the democrats.
Bent County register., 1887-10-15

Our county is so large that 4 man
might live a life time within its bor-
lders without becoming acquainted
with majority of the residents.
This Is so even with the candidates
who are supposed to be around get
ting acquainted with everybody. We
have endsavored to ascertain where
the gentlemen on the republican
ticket formerly resided, what their
business has been etc, and will pub
lish the same rs an introduction To
those who have not the pleasure of
their acquaintance. 4. CLARK, who
is our candidate for assessor, is ma
tive of Ohio where he lived until the
breaking out of the Rebellion, at
which time he entered the volunteer
service of the United States. He was
present at Appomatox and saw the
rebellion die, having actively served
for more than four years. After the
war Mr.. Clark moved 10 Clarence,
Missouri, where he was appointed
postmaster aud served in that capac-
ity until two years ago, when he re-
moved to western Kansas, only re-
manning few months however. and
finally settled at Granada where he
has taken and settled upon land. He
has been 4 resident of the state over
a year, and can be said TO be one of
the enterprising, pushing class of
men that will make eastern Colora-
do all that the most sanguine hope
for. We found Mr.. Clark TO be
quiet, unassumIng man gentleman
IN every particular and one thor
oughlY competent to fill any posi-
lion in the county at the gilt of the
people. If he is elected it is surely
a case of the Office seeking the man.
J. A. Folwell, the republican nomi-
nee for sheriff, has been resident
of Bent comfy over twenty three
years. During that time hs has been
one of the most trusted deputy sher-
ifs for five years and is known
throughout the county as quiet,
perfect gentleman, possessing as
much nerve as any other man in the
county. Mr.. Folwelrs opponent for
the Office speaks in the highest terms
of him as do all who are acquainted
with him and wa believe he will
make good officer in every respect.
So lar IN the campaign be is met on
every hand with encouragement and
his election is one that can be said
to be sure.
Gilbert NJ. Hall, the republican
nominee for county clerk and re-
corder came to this country from
New York six years ago and had
charge of the county clerks office
for nearly a year for II. Hollings-
worth While in that position M.
Hall made many friends by the
prompt and correct conduct of the
business of the Office and showed
himself TO he thoroughly competent
to fill the position of clerk. He has
been at La Junta the past five years,
being for four years with Mr.. Hol-
lingsworth, one of La Junta's pio-
neer merchants. Last fall mr. Hall
removed to his farm six miles from
La Junta and is engaged in growing
fine cattle and alfalfa. II elected,
as will certainly be the case, he will
give entire personal attention to the
